What if you don't have anything else on your list?
If that's the case, then you may be just trying to see what life teaches you.
Life answered a question Sunday, and I was surprised at how okay I was with that.
It's not that I'm done. It's that I do understand how amazing life is.
This is unusual music for me, but I like it. I came close to dying when I was 28. Would not have even known it. It would have been an okay death for me, but not for the guy who killed me. He was a drunk driver, and I felt sorry for him. My brother says he is the one who called for help. I hate that he had to teach me that I had too much to lose. So I thought that I didn't tell God thank you enough. I just started saying it for everything.
I'm breathing. You're breathing. If we're not healthy maybe we're getting that way. And if we're not, then I have to know that I don't understand other than we age as we become less and more. Some of us don't even get that chance. Life gets too complicated if I don't understand that we are all just doing the best we can.
Today I am grateful for a hospital bed in that bedroom, that people had enough sense to put my hip back together, and that first night (may I never forget) when I said thank you for the people who lived through it. And my mother. Good gosh we won't even go there.

Glad you made it, glad you are here. I have this ultra long and confusing comment to make about this, maybe one day I can just tell you, glad you made it.
Ultra long and confusing comments are my favorite.
